The First Night With The Duke Manga

The duke and his desire

Raphael Emberlin, the Duke of Barrington, and his maid, Natalie Scott, are kidnapped while on a journey. After escaping their captors, they find themselves in a strange, unfamiliar land far from home. Everything around them is different, from the language to the people, and they must find their way back, all while learning to navigate the challenges of being stuck with each other. Raphael, used to being in control, struggles to trust anyone, especially Natalie. However, as they travel together, he begins to see her in a new light—her strength, courage, and ability to handle tough situations. On the other hand, Natalie has to deal with Raphael’s arrogance and pride, but she also notices his vulnerability and starts to understand him better. As they journey through this unknown world, their relationship starts to change. What began as a forced partnership slowly grows into something deeper. They each discover new strengths within themselves and each other. By the time they finally return home, they are left wondering whether they can go back to their old lives or if the journey has changed them forever. *****Excerpt**** "Are you mad?" she exclaimed, her eyes wide as she stared at him. "What do you think you’re doing?" Raphael narrowed his eyes, his jaw tightening. "Don’t speak to me like that again." "And if I do?" she shot back, her voice laced with defiance. "Have you lost your wits? You are speaking to your Duke. No matter the situation, I am still your lord. You will speak to me with respect. Do you understand?" Natalie studied him for a long moment, her gaze unwavering, before a sharp laugh escaped her lips. Raphael’s face darkened, his fists clenched at his sides, ready to strike. "Oh, that was a good one," she said, her voice dripping with mockery. "Keep thinking with that brain of yours, and you’ll get us both killed." "You will regret this when we reach the estate," Raphael growled, his voice low, dangerous. "If we make it to the estate. We won’t get very far if you keep using that foolish brain of yours. Why on earth would you announce to everyone that you’re a duke? What if we get kidnapped again?" "Did you just call my brain foolish?" Raphael's voice rose, his patience fraying. "Yes," she replied, unflinching. "What are you going to do about it?" "You’ll beg for mercy when we return, I'll make sure of it." he warned, his words cold. "You will regret your actions. You will be relieved of your duties and sent back to the slums where you belong." "That’s unnecessary," she muttered, a bitter edge to her voice. "I quit. I’d rather die than spend another moment in your presence. I hope you know how to brew tea because I am no longer your maid, Raph." Raphael’s eyes widened, his face a mask of fury. "What did you call me?" "Raph," she said simply, her lips curling into a smirk. "What are you going to do about it?" Raphael froze, his entire body tense, as though he were about to strike her. But then, with a visible effort, he turned away and sat near the fire, his fists unclenching. Natalie smirked, watching him closely. "Yeah, that’s what I thought. Here, you are nothing. So the sooner you drop that arrogance, the better for you."

The First Climber

Eren Kain was an ordinary engineer and inventor until the day the Tower of Trials appeared. A massive, otherworldly spire reaching into the heavens, the tower beckoned humanity with promises of power, wealth, and immortality—but also death. Unlike the others, Eren was forcibly bound to the Tower. No one else could enter until he began his climb, and he couldn’t leave unless he reached the top. Stripped of magic, aura, or any supernatural ability, Eren’s only advantage is his engineering genius and the technology he can smuggle in. From basic firearms to drones and exoskeletons, he uses every tool at his disposal to survive the monsters, traps, and bizarre ecosystems within the Tower. Yet even technology has its limits in a world governed by magic. As Eren climbs, he discovers the Tower isn’t just a trial but a puzzle. Its magic isn’t arbitrary—it’s systematic, a science he slowly learns to decode. However, one wrong calculation could kill him instantly, forcing him to balance experimentation with survival. He scavenges magic crystals, artifacts, and spell books, using them in crude, improvised ways to bolster his arsenal. Over time, he begins merging technology and magic, creating unique hybrid tools to overcome the increasingly insurmountable challenges. But why was Eren chosen? What secret does the Tower hold? With no escape and the weight of humanity’s fate on his shoulders, Eren must climb—not just to survive, but to unravel the truth of the Tower itself. every 50 collections I’ll give a chapter and every 20 powerstones I’ll give a chapter every 10 reviews I’ll give a chapter

When the night comes

"Let me fall in love with you." With his ocean blue eyes, he looks at me. "I can't ...We are enemies." "I-" I know that. I doubt anyone knows it better than us. But still I can't help it. I want to love you. I want you to love me. I want us to be together. I wish I could declare this to whole world. Slowly extending his hands towards me, he says"One day we will not be enemies, maybe then we can be lovers." What do I say to that? Do I tell him I will wait... Or question him when? I have so many questions to ask him. But again how do I break it to him. "..." "n.." His gaze stuck on me for a while finally disappears. Facing straight, he finally breaks the silence with a soft wispher"Not just lovers." "Yes." I question him not believing my ears. Maybe the whistle of air is hindering my hearing. He whimpers. Completely turning away his head, he adds"Not just lovers but spouses." "Are you proposing to me?" I couldn't believe my ears, I couldn't believe reality. I am dreaming, aren't I? Maybe the night's cold is finally getting to me. "Yes,I will you accept?" He heard that. Noway did I speak aloud? Huh. The tips of his ear are little red. He is so cute. I can't help but smile to that. "You do realize you are asking me to wait to date right?" He turns and stares me down in eyes. He looks pitful. Maybe to an outsiders, it looks like I am bullying him. "I will give you the answer when we aren't enemies. He looked away. He had a frown on his face. "When the night comes, will we meet again." I asked him, gazing upon the stars in the sky. " When the night comes, I will also come with it." His replied made my heart tingle. "But I don't know about you." My face had a soft smile.
